JaVale McGee will start for Golden State in Game 2 on Sunday
Golden State Warriors center JaVale McGee will start at center on Sunday for Game 2 of the NBA Finals.
What It Means:
McGee replaces Kevon Looney, who had been in the starting five since Andre Iguodala was hurt in the Western Conference Finals. McGee has only appeared in two games during the Western Conference and NBA Finals, playing just nine total minutes. He is likely not in for a long run of minutes on Sunday either.
McGee averaged 8.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.0 blocks for 19.8 FanDuel points in 16.3 minutes in his 5 starts during the first-round of the 2018 playoffs.
